Artist Biography
There seems little doubt that were they not so geographically challenged, the Nits would be one of the most widely respected alternative bands in the world -- at least on a par with smart-as-a-whip types like XTC and Prefab Sprout. But the Nits come from Holland, and they quickly made it clear that their only concession to the outside world would be to sing in English. In particular, the Nits specialize in making their latest album sound as little like the last as possible -- a marketing man's nightmare. This has simultaneously guaranteed them a modest degree of success across continental Europe, where fans appreciate their fierce integrity and commitment to playing intimate venues, and denied a lot of people elsewhere some wonderfully inventive -- and very accessible -- music. ~ Chris Evans
